PowerRUN?

[dimensiondvdrob]

Anyone know...

Today I used PowerRUN and put the following on the memory stick using PR:
Documents App from DTG
Word to Go
Sheet to Go

When I ran the Documents app, the list of apps came up and when I chose a document to open, PowerRUN went into a run-loop and i had to reset. Anyone know which app has to be resident on the CLIE and which can run from MS?
Also, how do I know which apps I can safely put onto the MS without the run-loop occurring?

Thanks.

I have not been able to get Word to Go to run with PowerRUN, on my NX, my wife's NX or my NZ. Unless anyone has a better idea, may I suggest moving them to the Palm/Launcher folder on the MS.

Read the documentation. It says it doesn't support Documents to Go.

philigin - LOL, read the documentation... great sig. :)

Here's a quote from the Documentation/Manual:

"2. Applications which may not be moved to Memory Card
PalmOS enhancement type application (Hacks) may not be moved to the Memory Card (These tend to run under a hack manager such as Hackmaster or X-Master). PowerRUN tries to detect Hacks automatically and stops them from being moved to the Memory Card. However, there is a chance that PowerRUN may fail to detect a particular Hack, so please take care to avoid moving a Hack to the memory card.
If an application fulfils either of the following two conditions, that application is likely to be a Hack, so please do not try to move it to the Memory Card.

Condition 1 The application may be used while running another application.
Condition 2 A Enable/Disable or Activate/Deactivate menu choice exists in the application.

When an application is moved to the Memory Card, there will be some change in functionality (Exactly like the m50X series' built in function) as detailed below. If you do not like these changes, do not move the application to the Memory Card.

Hot Sync will not backup that application and its data
Global find cannot find data in that application, except when the application is running
Application alarms will not come up
Application conduits will not work

Following application cause problem when moved to Memory Card. Please use in internal memory.

1. Fire Viewer
2. Document To Go"

I hope this is clear.

I manged to put my Documents-to-Go in this workaround way:

- Moved WordToGo, SheetToGo, etc., into /PROGRAM/LAUNCHER folder
- than use PowerRUN just to move "Documents" into MS

I hope it works for you, too.

Ok, I get it. Thanks.

Thanks for all your responses.
Also, what I want to know is can I move Netfront from internal to the PALM/LAUNCHER folder and run from there? Can I safely move that file along with games to the MS with PowerRUN or am I better off just moving what can run from the MS to the PALM/LAUNCHER folder?
Thanks in advance.

I am successfully running NETFRONT, ClieMAIL (without the conduit), WEBPRO and Versamail (without the conduit) from Powerrun...

Each of these has what seems like dozens of smaller apps associated with them, not to mention they are LARGE and take up precious memory space...so Powerrun is perfect for them...

Every one of my games is loaded into Power Run, as well as any application that doesn't have a conduit to sync with (ie, handyshopper, Contacts Pro, Mapopolis, Bugme, etc)

Keen in mind, anything that requires a conduit shouldn't be put into PowerRun as the conduit has to see the application to sync.

Additionally - anything that requires a conduit shouldn't be put on the Memory Stick as during hotsync, it cannot see those applications.

My solution for Documents to Go was to leave Documents in the the main RAM, and put the other related apps in the Palm\Launcher directory.
